No options in multiboot
 

Can't reflash because of usb problem. Tried pressing all the buttons on the keyboard. What do i do guys? :(

Re: No options in multiboot
 

Keyboard closed???
What is your kernel installed?
If you have a kernel installed, it should boot into whatever the last OS was..

Re: No options in multiboot
 

Idk the kernel installed... keyboard open/closed makes no difference

Re: No options in multiboot
 

when you start your N900, do you see those ..... and nokia animation? or your phone does not reach till there? Am asuming that your battery life is NOT 0%

Re: No options in multiboot
 

It shows the white screen with NOKIA on it, then it shows the empty multiboot menu. Battery isn't at 0%

Re: No options in multiboot
 

Press 0 in Multiboot menu, it should boot you in Maemo

I've tried, i get "Can't flash kernel, required files not found Guru Meditation #00000025.62017712

Re: No options in multiboot
 

Thats an NTDROID error ... Try pressing "1" to see if it boots on NTDROID

are you able to boot through any option? if so, install power kernel booting

apt-get update
apt-get install kernel-power-bootimg

or go to Hildon Application Manager install package: Linux Kernel for power user (boot image)

I cannot boot into anything. Tried pressing everything. Can't boot into anything.

Saw that. If my USB was working I would've flashed my N900 without asking here.

Re: No options in multiboot
 

:( sorry mate.. seems the only option left is to Flash it ..

Follow Manual Flashing Method B from FP.

At step 11 type following code:
CODEflasher-3.5 -F R.bin --flash-only=kernel -f -R

This will only flash your kernel.
Reboot with your keyboard open & press 0.

Though i would suggest still wait to see if someone can help you out of this problem

All the Best !

Re: No options in multiboot
 

I can't flash it without a working USB port... and I don't have one of those...

Re: No options in multiboot
 

one more option i can think of is to boot from MicroSD Card

Re: No options in multiboot
 

How could i do that?

Re: No options in multiboot
 

Do you want to flash your kernel by PC, what is your operating System, If you have windows 7 then I can help you.

Re: No options in multiboot
 

I use windows xp, I still don't understand how I can flash my N900 without a working usb port

Re: No options in multiboot
 

First connect your N900 to PC via USB, Install libusb from http://www.mediafire.com/?s01pwyzirxsa23o and extract it on your computer, then open its folder "bin" then you will see inf-wizard double click it program will run press Next then you will see list of USB ports then select N900 (PC-Suite Mode) press next again press next then give permission to install driver. after completion it will done. Now your USB mode will be ok.

You should write "USB is broken"

My dad is somewhat professional when it comes to electronics, he said he can't do it with his solder kit, and he's not gonna spend money on it. I tried calling Nokia Care but they were closed for memorial day weekend.

Re: No options in multiboot
 

That is not the problem at hand
